Stargate SG-1 (1997) – Brief Candle, and Thor’s Hammer
After Emancipation, I think Brief Candle is my least favourite first season episodes (outside of the clip show near season one’s end, of course).

Stargate SG-1 (1997) – Children of the Gods
I loved the sense of wonder and adventure that the original Stargate film made me feel when I watched it, but I was reticent to dive into the series until well after the first season was released to DVD. My friend Dennis loved it, and swore by it and said I should give it a…
